The Pink Ballroom The night before I did a gig with my lovely little friend, the marvelous, Laura J Martin, I had the strangest dream. Never before had I seen The Brudenell Social Club in such vivid colour. A room full of lavish ball gowns and ostentatious attire, huge tables covered in silk and a stage fronted with Psychedelic candied fruit. The importance of the occasion unnerved me somewhat, especially when I realised the zip on my dress was undone. Like an uncanny Cinderella scenario, in the depths of Yorkshire, this midnight un-wedding was showing my innermost anxiety and all because the lady was having trouble placing her harmonies. Wake up Fuzz, it will all be alright!

Well you will be pleased to know it all turned out ok in the end; a few beers later and the anxiety subsided. Little pixie Martin,you were magnificent and Mélanie Pain (Nouvelle Vague) you wererather flipping cool. Mais bien sur!

About

"Love of the Brave are just two people but at times with the help of others they imagine they are much more. "
"Gorgeous, well, really beautiful". Alan Raw (BBC Introducing)
"Love of the Brave are quite simply one of the best things to appear in Yorkshire since the flat cap". Ivan Mack (The Housekeeping Society)
In a cold garage in Leeds resides a collection of vintage studio equipment and instruments. Over the winter months, sustained by the heat of valves and the dim light from dusty VU meters, Love of the Brave wrapped themselves in discarded magnetic tape to keep reality at bay. Through the decaying cables of Soviet Union microphones and onto salvaged BBC tape reels they create music for us.
